President Trump has frozen over $2.2 billion in federal funding to Harvard University after it rejected White House demands targeting antisemitism on campus.
The university refused sweeping changes that included federal oversight of governance, hiring, and admissions.
Harvard's president argued the demands violated its independence and constitutional rights.
The Biden-era push to enforce federal control through funding threatens academic autonomy.
Harvard is the first to resistâwhile others like Columbia have already complied under pressure.
Lawsuits are mounting as campus arrests intensify over pro-Palestinian protests nationwide.
Harvard Under Investigation: In a bold move, the Trump administration has launched a civil rights investigation into Harvard University and its Harvard Law Review, accusing the journalâs editors of race-based discrimination. The probe centers on whether the Law Review's selection process was influenced by race, allegedly fast-tracking a submission from a racial minority scholar.

Harvard University lawsuit targets the Trump administration over a federal funding freeze exceeding $2.2 billion. The prestigious institution has taken legal action in Massachusetts federal court, calling the move "unlawful" and an attack on academic independence. Trumpâs government alleges campus antisemitism and is pushing universities to meet ideological demands. Harvard argues the funding block is politically motivated and violates the First Amendment. Other elite universities are also under pressure, but none have taken as bold a stance. This legal battle could redefine academic freedom and federal authority in the U.S.

U.S. President Donald Trump and Melania Trump are set to attend Pope Francisâ funeral but will reportedly be seated in the third rowâbehind Catholic and non-Catholic royalty. The UK Telegraph dubbed the placement âhumiliating,â especially after Trump had mocked Bidenâs 14th-row spot at Queen Elizabethâs funeral. World leaders, including Trump, will sit alphabetically by country (in French), possibly placing the Trumps near Estonia or Eswatini. The optics of this seating have stirred buzz online and could reignite debates on America's global status and Trumpâs past remarks.
